2010-04-24 - Identified through on-line information from Kip Said. -- The Schantz was intended to be placed behind the same non-speaking facade dating back to the Hutchings-Votey which hid the speakers of the electronic instrument which replaced it. The Schantz was neither designed or intended for its pipework to be exposed.<br><br>The facade was removed to facilitate the installation of the Schantz. After installation, the instrument sounded so good (after 25 years of an electronic instrument, this was not surprising), church leadership chose to not reinstall the non-speaking facade. <br><br>The Schantz installation crew was also pleased with the sound of the instrument but was reported to have told the pastor that had they known it was to be exposed, they could have built an organ with something other than the purely functional view the church was going to have of the new instrument. -Database Manager
